Definitions
- the present invention is based, in general, on the field of agriculture and the processing of harvested crops.
- the self-propelled agricultural harvesting machines are typically combine harvesters, forage harvesters, and all types of lifters that are equipped with devices for processing and conveying the crop material.
- the discharge device is a conveyance device of this type. The discharge device is used to transfer al of the crop material to a hauling vehicle or an attached transport container.
- the harvesting machines pick up crop material continuously, process it in a known manner, and transfer it to a hauling vehicle that is being driven alongside or behind, the transferring taking place continuously, e.g., with a self-propelled forage harvester, or after intermediate storage, e.g., with a combine harvester.
- the crop material is transferred using a transfer device, which, on a combine harvester, is a discharge device, for example.
- the discharge device may be a grain tank discharge pipe.
- the discharge device may be an upper discharge chute with a transfer-device cover on the end.
- a discharge device is used to transfer the crop material from a self-propelled harvesting machine and a hauling vehicle with minimal loss.
- the discharge device is equipped with a control device for performing automatic or manual adjustments, and the self-propelled agricultural harvesting machine is equipped with a navigation system for determining the positions of the vehicles involved.
- Vehicles of this type in particular self-propelled agricultural harvesting machines with a transfer device for transferring the crop material to a hauling vehicle or a transport container—the device including a discharge device, a control device for adjusting the discharge device, the transfer-device cover, and the crop discharge flow, and including a navigation system for determining the relative positions of the vehicles involved, and including data transmission between the vehicles—are adequately known from the related art.
- Various methods for automatically filling hauling vehicles—in the case of a forage harvester—by automatically moving the upper discharge chute are known.
- One example is described in EP 1 454 520 A1.
- the aforementioned EP describes a control for positioning a discharge device in accordance with its degrees of freedom, with which the ejection height, i.e., the height at which material is ejected from the discharge device, may be maintained, regardless of the ground level and the rotation around the vertical axis.
- the disadvantage of this control device is that it does not account for the relative speed and position of the hauling vehicle, for instance. As a result, it is not possible to determine the impact point of the crop material on the hauling vehicle into which the crop material is filled.
- a device of this type for identifying the position and determining the dimensions of self-propelled agricultural vehicles is disclosed in DE 100 64 862 A1.
- the disclosed object relates to a navigation system installed in the vehicles that ascertains the relative position of the vehicles involved—between which crop material is to be transferred—e.g., a harvesting machine and a hauling vehicle.
- the data that are determined are used to better coordinate the vehicles with each other.
- the data are also used to control the discharge device. That is, an adjustment of the discharge device is calculated based on the current position of the harvesting vehicle and the hauling vehicle.
- the data that were determined are also used to calculate the theoretical impact point of the crop material on the hauling vehicle based on the dimensions of the transport container and/or the hauling vehicle and the current position of the discharge device. If the impact point of the crop material is outside of the transport container, a warning message is generated.
- the impact point of the crop material on the hauling vehicle must be defined and controlled even more exactly.
- a control for the discharge device was therefore provided in unexamined patent application DE 10 2004 052 298 A1, which reduces permanent control of the transfer process by the driver and ensures that the crop material is transferred to the hauling vehicle with fewer losses.
- the goal of this automation is to position a continuous crop discharge flow within a specified geometry.
- the defined geometry is composed of a virtual grid that encloses a partial region or the entire region of the harvesting vehicle, and therefore also covers the hauling vehicle.
- the grid is composed of a large number of fields.
- the driver may guide the crop discharge flow to the controllable fields of the virtual grid when the crop material is transferred from the discharge device.
- the transfer of crop material is oriented to the position and size of the virtual grid, and to the size and position of the fields, so that the range of rotation of the discharge device is determined by the virtual grid and the virtual fields.
- This disadvantage of this design of the control for the discharge device is that the driver of the self-propelled agricultural harvesting machine must still steer the discharge device and the crop material discharge flow in order to adjust the impact point of the crop material on the transport surface such that the crop material is transferred with fewer losses overall and is not conveyed past the hauling vehicle and left on the field as a loss.
- the object of the present invention is to create a control and/or a control system of the type described initially that prevents the aforementioned disadvantages of the designs known from the related art, and to provide a technical solution that makes it possible to support and/or relieve the driver during the transfer process such that the loss of crop material due to poorly coordinated transferring, hard-to-see hauling vehicles, or transferring crop material at night may be prevented.
- vehicle system comprising at least two vehicles; a navigation system for determining a relative position of said vehicles; a data transmission system for exchanging data between said vehicles; a transfer device for transferring a harvested crop material to one of said vehicles which is a hauling vehicle, said transfer device including a discharge device, a control device for positioning said discharge device, and a transfer-device cover, configured so that an impact point of a crop discharge flow is located in a tolerance region.
- the tolerance region is bounded by an edge zone.
- the tolerance region and the edge zone define the surface of the transport container.
- the surface of the transport container is defined by the transport container contour and/or by the dimensions of the hauling vehicle and/or the transport container.
- the transport container contour defines the outer boundary of the edge zone.
- the outer boundary of the edge zone depends on the geometry of the hauling vehicle and/or the transport container, and is therefore adjustable in a variable manner.
- the dimensions and position of the hauling vehicle/transport container may be determined using sensors, e.g., using a navigation system with GPS antennas on the transport container, and/or using a combination of sensors and a mathematical model.
- the inner boundary of the edge zone is located within the boundary of the surface of the transport container and is part of the loading surface. In a special case, the inner boundary of the edge zone may coincide with the outer boundary of the edge zone, either partially or entirely.
- the size of the tolerance region for the impact point of the crop discharge flow may also be adjusted during the transfer process via the variably adjustable, inner boundary of the edge zone.
- the size of the tolerance region is adjusted based on the need and/or harvesting conditions. The need to make an adjustment therefore depends on various parameters, e.g., the machine and crop material-dependent parameters, by way of which the location of the edge zone—that is, the inner and/or outer boundaries of the edge zone—may be changed.
- Crop material-dependent parameters are, e.g., the heaped cone of the conveyed crop material, the size of which may vary due to the different levels of moisture in the crop material. Dried crop material results in a small heaped cone, while moist crop material results in a large heaped cone.
- the size of the heaped cone changes, the position of the inner boundary of the edge zone and, therefore, the size of the tolerance range for the impact point of the crop discharge flow should be varied.
- the type and/or length of cut of the crop material also affect the heaped cone.
- Machine-dependent parameters are, e.g., the ground speed of the harvesting machine and/or the hauling vehicle, and the speed of the vehicles relative to each other, by way of which the inner boundary of the edge zone may be changed during the transfer process and adapted to the new circumstances.
- a further machine-dependent parameter accounts for the diagonal position of the harvesting and hauling vehicle, i.e., the slant of the field or the slant of the hauling vehicle and/or the harvesting machine relative to the ground. These parameters are also considered in the evaluation for the control when determining the inner boundary of the edge zone. Parameters of sensors that register the ambient conditions may also be considered in the evaluation for the control of the discharge device. Parameters of ambient conditions are, e.g., wind direction and wind speed.
- the surface formed between the inner and outer boundaries of the edge zone is a “keep-out” zone for the impact point of the crop discharge flow. Crop material must not land in these “keep-out” zones. With regard for transferring crop material, the “keep-out” zone is a safety zone at the edge of the transport container, which may be increased or reduced in size as needed.
- the theoretical impact point of the crop discharge flow on the hauling vehicle or the transport container is determined using the method described in the related art per DE 100 64 862 A1 and DE 10 2004 052 298 A1. The position of the impact point that was identified is used to determine whether a transfer process may start or not. If the theoretically determined impact point of the crop discharge flow is located in the region of the “keep-out” zone, the transfer process is not started.
- the conveyance of crop material in an on-going transfer process is interrupted until the theoretical impact point of the crop material is once more located in the tolerance region of the loading zone. If the theoretical impact point of the crop discharge flow is located in the tolerance region of the loading zone, the discharge device is switched on and the transfer process is started. That is, the transfer process is automatically started and/or carried out only in the permitted region of the crop material impact point. If the impact point of the crop discharge flow leaves the permissible region, the transfer process is automatically switched off, and the driver of the harvesting machine and the hauling vehicle is informed via a warning signal. The driver of the harvesting machine now has the option of continuing the transfer process by controlling the discharge device manually.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic depiction of vehicles involved during the harvesting and transfer process; one vehicle is a harvesting machine, and the other vehicle is a hauling vehicle used for harvesting operations and includes the transfer region described according to the present invention.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic depiction of two vehicles 1 driving next to each other in parallel, in a top view.
- One of the vehicles is a self-propelled harvesting machine 2 in the form of a combine harvester with known elements, e.g., crop material pick-up device, driver's cab, grain tank, ground drive, land wheels, etc., which will not be discussed in greater detail here, and a hauling vehicle 3 , which is composed of a pulling machine 4 and an attachable transport container 5 .
- a hauling vehicle 3 may also be composed of a pulling machine 4 with integrated transport container 5 , a semi-trailer, e.g., a truck.
- Self-propelled harvesting machine 2 may also be, e.g., a forage harvester.
- the forage harvester picks up crop material from the field being worked, fragmentizes the crop material and transfers it using transfer device 9 to hauling vehicle 3 or transport container 5 .
- Transfer device 9 is composed of a control device 12 , a discharge device 10 , and a transfer-cover device 11 for the continuous transfer of the crop material.
- Combine harvester 2 also picks up crop material form the field being worked using the crop material pick-up device, fragmentizes and separates the crop material, ejects the straw portions and stores the grain portions in a grain tank.
- the combine harvester also includes a transfer device 9 , which empties the grain tank.
- the crop material is transferred from the grain tank to hauling vehicle 3 and/or transport container 5 using a discharge device 10 and a transfer-device cover 11 .
- the crop material may be transferred and the grain tank may be emptied in a continuous or discontinuous manner during the harvesting operation.
- the manner in which the driver is relieved of duties is based on the fact that crop material may be transferred in a fully automated manner.
- the current positions of vehicles 1 involved, harvesting machine 2 , and hauling vehicle 3 must be determined using a navigation system 6 .
- Navigation system 6 is necessary to ensure coordination between vehicles 2 , 3 , to register the dimensions of hauling vehicle 3 and transport container 5 , and to supply this specific information on hauling vehicle 3 and/or transport container 5 to a data memory (not shown).
- These special data are used for exact control 12 of discharge device 10 .
- a tolerance region 15 for impact point 13 of crop discharge flow 14 that is located within the boundary of loading surface 17 .
- Loading surface 17 is defined by the contour of transport container 5 .
- crop material flow 14 should not be directed up to the contour of transport container 5 . Instead, a certain distance therefrom should be maintained. The distance should be adjustable in a variable manner based on the different machine and crop material-dependent parameters.
- an edge zone 16 is formed around transport container contour 18 , which represents a “keep-out” zone 23 for impact point 13 of crop discharge flow 14 .
- Edge zone 16 is defined by outer boundary 19 and inner boundary 20 .
- Outer boundary 19 of edge zone 16 is defined by transport container contour 18 .
- Inner boundary 20 of edge zone 16 defines tolerance range 15 for theoretical loading zone 22 . Loading zone 22 and edge zone 16 together represent loading surface 17 .
- inner boundary 20 of edge zone 16 may be changed during the harvesting operation and during transfer, and may therefore be adapted to the harvesting conditions.
- inner boundary 20 of edge zone 16 is formed by four inner boundary lines 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 .
- Two sets of boundary lines 24 , 26 and 25 , 27 are separated but parallel, and they are defined by transport container contour 18 .
- Other geometric transport container contours 18 result in other geometric inner boundary lines.
- boundary lines 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 are changed when the diameter of heaped cone 21 is changed, or two boundary lines 25 , 27 are changed with the slant of transport container 5 when it is located at a slant relative to the ground.
- a further exemplary change to inner boundary lines 24 , 26 may result from taking wind conditions into account. It is also possible to change only one of the four boundary lines. Whenever the inner boundary lines 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 are changed, tolerance region 15 for impact point 13 of crop discharge flow 14 changes, and, therefore, so does theoretical loading zone 22 .
- discharge device 10 This theoretical loading zone 22 is controlled by discharge device 10 .
- discharge device 10 may be a grain tank discharge tube.
- discharge device 10 With a forage harvester, discharge device 10 may be an upper discharge chute. Crop material may be transferred from harvesting machine 2 to a hauling vehicle 3 in a continuous or discontinuous manner.
- Transmission system 8 provides a data transmission path. Using this data transmission path, data for coordinating the vehicles and for controlling discharge device 10 may be exchanged.
